Hal had me on to do a little celebration of my new show — something that wouldn’t be happening without him. He contends that he totally knew what he was doing putting me on air the first time (or few times); whether he did or not, I’m definitely grateful. I wouldn’t have considered broadcasting — let alone fallen in love with it — if he hadn’t decided my voice was valuable four years ago.

When I jumped in for hour two, Hal was mid-Trump Fest. He was playing roulette with Trump’s recent stump speech broadcast on C-Span, just hitting play at random places. It was everything you’d expect it to be and more. We also heard from one of Hal’s awesome regular callers who blames Palin — and therefore McCain — for the quality of the 2016 GOP candidates. I definitely see his point.
